    I still don't understand the logic that says saving two clicks is a massive bonus. I think the welcome is a nice touch that adds immersion, and I fully understand that not everyone is fully needing of immersion in the way that I am in games. I would have no issue is the summary was instant after the last question, or if it was moved to the inbox.

    Granted I am someone that still does all my screenshots the old fashioned way. I will prtscn, paste to paint, snip and save. I like to see the stages. And I take a lot of screenshots because I write up my saves in career updates.

    I just don't see the issue here. I probably never will.

    Ok now what if we add 10 more clicks? Its just a few more extra seconds? You wont mind? 

    You dont need to understand something to understand how other people might feel about it. 

    Also no one said its a massive bonus. Stop making that up yourself to score a point against people who never said that.

    I don't understand this mentality that a game is judged by how many clicks of the mouse you make. Playing a shooter someone will make even more clicks, but does that get criticised?

     

    Come on man I know you are more reasonable than this. And its not even true. I play csgo and Im clicking less than in FM half of the rounds (when I instantly die) so the comparison doesnt even make sense. A shooter is all about clicking. Football Manager UI serves as a purpose to get around things in the game. You want that as fast as possible.

    but how is two clicks a downside

    Because if less clicks is possible, more clicks is less desirable. You dont need to be an UI expert to understand that.

    I fear that it's only the hardcore FM fans who've been with the series for years that hate how easy the game has become. It might be just my pessimism but I think that they simply prefer to make the game easier to sell more copies. Especially that right now it's still pretty hard for people who come from FIFA, but can you imagine all those people who expect to be able to take a Championship club to CL final in 2-3 years playing for example FM14? 

    Of course they have to find a balance, but some things are really not that logical. The AI still does a lot of weird stuff when it comes to team building and stuff. I saw the Brexit AI and AI not attacking is gonna be fixed. I think after that we can start looking at stuff again.

    The users here are hardcore FM users so I do think listening to the opinions here dont make much sense. The people here are the ones that understand most underlying mechanics.

    Lool it's a double edged sword isnt it. You definitely want to be aware of game breaking bugs but you dont want to know about OP tactics or small bugs that wont really affect your game

    I found out about the AI not attacking when losing and I was just sad. That just hurts my immersion. Not like im steamrolling the game, but its a bit too easy at times.

    I guess least we know there is an issue, imagine you go deep into a unemployment save for the first time then realise something is up as there is hardly any players. Come to the forums realise there is a regen issue and your save is now dead.

    that person is me :(

    Stay away from the forums. The more you hang around here, the more issues you learn of that you didnt notice yourself. :lol:

    I understand the frustration, I want it fixed too, but none of us know how complex an issue it is, and the guys who are having to work on it are all doing so from home rather than the office. It seems like a really odd issue, and from what's been said, it seems to potentially be related to the number of free agents and older players retiring after not having contracts renewed, or not having contracts at all, for the 2020/21 season because of the tweaks made for Covid. Given they can't really remove the financial and schedule impact of Covid from the game, because it wouldn't reflect the current state of football, it sounds like a git of a bug to fully squash. I'd expect it's part of the pre-Christmas big patch they usually roll out though, they've made it clear they know how important fixing this issue is.

    And thats what everyone is annoyed with. Im a programmer and not bothered with bugs. Especially when its small ones and not gamebreaking ones. But there are so many small bugs everywhere, broken AI, newgens, stats broken etc that its really adds up to something annoying. Especially when some are reported in beta or some that have been in this game for 3+ years (columns) and not fixed. Thats really really annoying. 

    3 years. 3 years...

    Its too easy or easier than normal because AI mentality is bugged. AI Teams are too defensive especially when they are losing and playing away from home. AI teams under perform away from home again linked towards AI mentality. Apparently the issue is under review so hopefully we'll get a fix soon and hopefully this will increase the difficulty as AI teams will come out and attack which will make things more challenging. 

    I just hope they fix this, the Brexit AI problems and youth intake. All those stupid UI bugs and broken stats can be fixed later. Just get the main things working.

    If you can tag me into some of the more urgent looking ones I'll try and get some si replies

    Last two don't have a response yet? Bit hard to dig around everywhere when SI don't consistently have a pinned thread with known issues like in the beta. It's just some bugs around stats not being correct etc. Annoying.

    The new user interface doesn't stop you from managing your team, there's just less information that is all. Of course i want to view league table, opposing instructions, match ratings with the click of a button but it no means breaks the game for me, its just an inconvenience that is all.

    Less or broken information as many people have reported so far. I'm just gonna hope a Christmas patch fixes stuff like that. The new UI might be less good, but stuff like broken stats here and there is more annoying. That should be priority before they adjust the UI.

    In my experience with past games, the player count remained consistent for the most part.

    Whereas at the moment with Fm21 the playerbase gradually dwindles year on year whether you load playable or not. I've lost around 10% of the total starting playercount in just 5 years. Which is not normal

    Yes I know this, but was wondering if it's also the case for the youth squads you showed.

    Like I said, this is happening in multiple countries. Even in England Youth Academies are already beginning to dwindle compared to their starting points just 5 years into a save. FC Kobenhavn are another fully loaded team that has almost entirely stopped producing, just 2 a year for the previous 2 seasons

    I have never actually checked in previous games, was this also the case for FM 20, 19 etc? I thought as long as the total database is balanced issues like these aren't that bad.

    I loaded this as playable with nothing added via advanced. Have lost a total of 7k players from the start. 

    First season was roughly 11k newgens. 2nd 6k, 3rd 4.7k and 4th season was 4k globally

    A huge amount of teams across the playable leagues have dropped down in intake size drastically, with many top teams in their respective countries receiving only 2/3 per season as a max

    Should just bug report it. More for them to look at.

    only playable. The problem is, I haven't the save at the start anymore.  But having 150k players in 2045 is good. There are enough youngsters in all youth squads which where playable. If I should check something specific, let me know.

    Problem is the difference between unloaded leagues. Egypt for example struggles massive

    Thanks for the info. Just waiting for ur results from the all league playable u posted in ur own bug thread. If thats good I think thats a compromise for now. Lets hope they fix view only leagues soon.

    I have my beta-save from the early beginning at year 2045. looks not that bad to be honest. As the bugfix is savegame-compatible I just continue this save. If I'm right, there should be quite a big increase happen soon.

    Is that save with only playable leagues with no view-only leagues? How many players do you still have compared to the start?

    This is just a copy paste from yesterday.

    This is the more new info.

    As you can see they noticed some issues 8 years in now instead of the 10+ mentioned yesterday. So I guess they found more issues? 

    Saw someone 1/4 of their database just 10 years in so thats pretty big...

    The latest update contains a fix for this issue. We’ve increased the leniency for top clubs’ player count in non-playable leagues which should increase the likelihood of certain clubs receiving youth intakes each year.

    The fix is save game compatible but this doesn’t mean that loads of new newgens will start appearing in all nations in your save straight away. Newgens have a pre-generation date around 3 months before they appear in game, so the fix will apply to the next pre-generation dates, rather than next intake date.

    I also want to clarify that the amount of newgens that generate in the first season in non-playable leagues shouldn’t be expected every season. We use newgens to replace retiring players and keep the overall player count relatively consistent, in FM21 there are more retirements than usual in the first season, which we think is a result of more free agents at game start and the COVID 19 financial implications meaning many clubs won’t offer as many contracts. So after the inflated first season intakes, the game balances out and the player count in these inactive leagues is deemed acceptable and therefore they may not receive intakes again for some time.

    We are restricted in the amount of players we can add to non-playable leagues, and the numbers in these leagues are intentionally much lower. If you want to guarantee high numbers of newgens from a specific nation, then you’ll need to add that nation as a playable league, which can be done at the start of a new game, or midway through a save via the dropdown menu.

    This will likely require some further tweaks and we think there are still some issues with total player count 10+ years into saves, we’re working hard to iron these out and any future fixes will be save game compatible too.

    Hopefully that all makes sense! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

    Thanks again for your patience.

    I have a question thats maybe related or maybe not im not sure. There were some people who noticed there were too many world class players in the future. Was this actually intended or also a side effect of this youth intake bug?
